Quick & Dirty Rules. Demo Battle Two

Have laid out the table for battle number two. In this battle the two foot regiments are reinforced by a regiment of horse. I throw dice to decide the starting position of the forces. The Royalist forces all ended up being placed in the centre of the table on their side, whilst once again, the Parliamentary forces was split into two. Both foot regiments being side by side on the left flank and the horse, on its own, away on the right flank.

Throwing for initiative, Parliament will move first.

 

Parliament will have to decide how to move his forces, possibly bring his horse across to the centre of the table to force the Royalist foot into 'Hedgehog' defensive formation, or possibly engage the Royalist horse. Adding two units of horse, should alter the tactics for this battle.
